I know some really cool religious people who are just as far left as me, so I don't want to go so far as to straight up say "religion bad!" even if, tbh, that's what my gut tells me. Should be okay to believe whatever you want about the big questions as long as you don't use it to fuck up society.
There are plenty of cool religious people, but that doesn't make religion any less bad.

It is only natural for a belief in magic to translate into a belief in all kinds of other harmful stuff. It should not be socially acceptable to disagree with the basic facts of reality. We should all start from the same position that reality is real.
Yeah religious people derive their morals from the idea that a magic person says what is good and bad to do. I derive mine from the fact I am a human with empathy for other humans.
